Unhappy Its getting cold in the mornings....my car dosnt blow ANY hot air.

The climate control does nothing at all. Still icy cold air either way, what should I look for to fix this?

There is a well known problem with the AC/heat control ****....do a search and you will find a DIY to fix the shitty solder joint that is usually the problem
